Dear Senator McCain
I read your statement that “there is no national security
interest more vital to America than the ability to hold free and fair
elections without foreign interference”.

I’m not trying to
“get at you” or at the United States but looking at America from outside, one gets the impression that this battle has long since
being lost. Let me give you some examples. It is often easier to be more objective when looking at examples that don't hit close to home so I will use examples from the Democratic Party and from some time ago. I'm sure you can come up with more examples from the GOP than I can.

Take the abysmal way
that Truman was chosen instead of Wallace as FDR’s running mate in
FDR’s last term. I’m sure you are familiar with the story so I
won’t insult your knowledge by recounting it. Arguably, MAD might
have been avoided if Wallace had become president. Wallace was
clearly the people’s choice in America and was hugely admired all
over the world He was an experienced politician with a proven track
record but wouldn’t cow tow to the powers behind the spot lights.

Come forward in time
to the recent Dem primary and the abysmal, undemocratic,
unconstitutional activity under Debbie in cahoots with Hillary.
Clearly Bernie was the people’s choice. If he had being running
against Trump, the result is not hard to predict. I would suggest
that he might well have brought in a Dem majority in both the House
and the Senate on his coat tails.

Add to this the
denial of registration in many states, the hassling of people trying
to vote and the antiquated voting machines that are quite frankly a
joke in a first world country. For a recounting of the abuses in one state, put
in a google search box Youtube Arazona Hearings Democratic
Primary. It’s a shocker.

If any more was
needed, look at your delegate system. Even though a majority of the
American people vote for a given candidate, your system can put the
other candidate into office.What a joke. What democracy??

Then you have the reduction of polling stations such that it is a real treck for many of the voters to get to a polling station. Older people and couples with young children either don't come to vote or get fed up by waiting in line for hours. No prises for guessing which areas have lost their polling stations.

Oh, I forgot. Your totally undemocratic super delegate system,
specifically designed to frustrate the will of the people if it doesn't
agree with the wishes of the party bosses.

Just two more
comments. First it is a bit rich for America to complain about
another country interfering in America’s elections. America has a
long history of deposing democratically elected leaders and replacing
them with dictators. America then supplies the dictator and his army with arms and money so that they can suppress their
own people. Start with Mosedeq in Iran and work your way through Africa (Congo for instance)
and then central and South America. Include Italy. Look up the
mtkass blog “Thoughts on the Roof”
and type in the search box, “Timeline America” to
see a catalog of specific cases.

Secondly, while it
is important who hacked the e-mails, the really important question is
what they revealed. They revealed a very corrupt DNC, which is part
of the so called “free and fair” election system of the United States of
America. The corrupt, bought and paid for American press is
continuing its misdirection of the American people by focusing their
attention on who the hackers were instead of what they revealed about the American election system.

Whoever hacked the Dem e-mails did the American people a favor.

Senator, there is nothing democratic about the American system.. You have by far the best constitution of any country in the world but you simply trample it into the mud.
